Product Information

Full details

The Swing P07 Riding Back Protector is designed for equestrians who prioritize safety without sacrificing mobility. Providing comprehensive 360-degree protection for the spine and coccyx, this lightweight, flexible guard allows for natural movement in the saddle using advanced high-tech materials. Riders should note that while it provides robust back protection, it does not replace a full safety vest required for specific competitive cross-country or mixed-discipline events under German LPO regulations.

FAQs

Does this replace my cross-country body protector?

No. The P07 meets the EN 1621-2:2014 standard, but it is not a replacement for the EN 13158-2000/2009 vests required for sanctioned cross-country competitions.

Is the P07 machine washable?

No. We recommend cleaning the surface with a damp cloth only to avoid damaging the impact-absorbing foam.

Can I wear this under a winter coat?

Yes, as long as the coat is not so tight that it restricts the protector's ability to absorb shock or makes you feel physically constrained while riding.

What does the 360-degree protection cover?

It provides comprehensive impact protection surrounding the spine and the coccyx area, ensuring coverage from various angles during a fall.

Is this suitable for children?

The P07 is designed for general use, but ensure you select the appropriate size based on the rider's spine length and torso measurements.

Troubleshooting

Protector feels like it is hitting the saddle during movement

Check that the back protector is properly positioned and not hanging too low; you may need to adjust your torso length settings or consider a different size.

Material feels stiff or uncomfortable

Allow the protector to sit at room temperature for a period, as the high-tech materials are designed to become more flexible as they absorb your body heat.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent spinal and coccyx impact protection
  • Lightweight and breathable design for comfort
  • High-tech materials allow for natural riding posture
  • Certified to motorcyclist safety standards for high-level impact absorption

Cons

  • Not compliant with EN 13158-2000/2009 standards for cross-country events
  • Focuses primarily on the back rather than front chest protection
  • Requires careful sizing for optimal spine coverage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper function, the P07 should sit centered on your spine with the bottom edge aligned near the base of the coccyx. Always test the fit by performing riding movements on the ground to ensure the protector does not strike the back of your saddle. Compatibility is broad for standard riding apparel; however, ensure your jackets are not overly tight, as this may compress the impact-absorbing material. For care, gently wipe the surface with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial detergents that might degrade the integrity of the high-tech impact-absorbing foam. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve material longevity.
